I have utilized LifeStance for over two years and am extremely pleased with everything about my treatment. Due to the fact that I see my doctor, Kenneth D'Oyen virtually, I check in with Megan Gotiango for an in-person visit once a year. Anyone who is prescribed controlled medication must see someone in-person on an annual basis to continue treatment with LifeStance. I truly appreciate this protocol. It is nice to check in with someone for an office visit. Both Megan Gotiangco & Kenneth D'Oyen are two of the finest medical professionals I have worked with. I saw my previous psychiatrist since 1995 & changed over to a new provider for medication management and am extremely grateful for everyone at LifeStance. The office in La Jolla is very nice. The customer service is tip top across the board. The virtual appointments are easy & I really feel supported in my treatment. I will utilize LifeStance as long as they exist. I have seen quite a few medical professionals and utilized a great many medical entities in my life, & I cannot recommend Megan Gotiangco and Kenneth D'Oyen enough. LifeStance has helped me continue to live an enjoyable, highly functioning life that is not hindered by high anxiety and crippling panic disorder. Thank you. Cheers!!

When my insurance changed back to where I was able to use life dance again it made my life so much better everybody’s nice there. Megan is terrific everybody when you called. They’re very responsive. I’m just very thankful. They really helped me make some positive changes in my life.
